What if you had the power to shape not just your brand's narrative, but also your personal relationships using nothing but the power of storytelling? Imagine having a clear and powerful methodology that helps you break down your brand's narrative, or your own life story, into five distinct steps - the origin, empathy, purpose, product, and vision stories. Buckle up as we navigate these waters with Amanda Baker, a seasoned story strategist, creative entrepreneur, and the brilliant mind behind the 5 Stories Methodology.
In this insightful discussion, we delve deeper into Amanda's unique method that has revolutionised how we view brand narratives. She shares fascinating insights on how to define and understand your target audience, the power of authenticity in business and purpose statements, and the need for honesty even when it leads to tough client conversations. More excitingly, Amanda also shows us how this methodology is not only limited to businesses but opens a world of possibilities for personal relationships as well as artistic endeavours.

I'll start by saying that I don't know much about rugby. However, that didn't stop me from trying it out a little bit. Rugby is a sport that emphasises the importance of community, where players work together to achieve a common goal. In this episode, I welcome the founding members of the Finsbury Park Panthers, a rugby team composed of trans and non-binary players who have a shared passion for the sport. They share their unique experiences playing rugby and how they have been able to overcome obstacles to become successful players. The club's mission is to create a safe and inclusive space for all players in the league, regardless of their background or identity. This inspiring conversation sheds light on the importance of advocacy and inclusivity in sports, and how rugby can be a powerful tool to bring people together and foster a sense of belonging. Join us for this inspiring conversation and learn more about the power of sports in building a stronger and more connected community!
